  Unless we change this list to moderated (and we lack the resources to keep up with support, let alone have a list-sitter), postings will happen as they do. We're working on pushing people to the archives.

  As a suggestion (and I should do this myself more often), instead of GIVING someone an answer, find it in the archives and send them the link. Or do a search, and send them the results.

    Oh yeah, good idea. That way anybody who posts to help people solve problems won't be able to provide TOO much help! :)

      I agree, simply restrict the number of posts per person to five per month or something.
